242 Str. And so we must take courage and attack our father’s theory here and now, or else, if any scruples prevent us from doing this, we must give the whole thing up.

242 Theaet. But nothing in the world must prevent us.

242 Str. Then I have a third little request to make of you.

242 Theaet. You have only to utter it.

242 Str. I said a while ago that I always have been too faint-hearted for the refutation of this theory, and so I am now.

242 Theaet. Yes, so you did.

242 Str. I am afraid that on account of what I have said you will think I am mad because I have at once reversed my position. You see it is for your sake that I am going to undertake the refutation, if I succeed in it.

242 Theaet. I certainly shall not think you are doing anything improper if you proceed to your refutation and proof; so go ahead boldly, so far as that is concerned.

242 Theaet. What way?

242 Theaet. Express your meaning more clearly.

242 Str. It seems to me that Parmenides and all who ever undertook a critical definition of the number and nature of realities have talked to us rather carelessly.

242 Theaet. How so?
